An innovative collection of essays that foregrounds specific cargoes as a means to understand connectivity and mobility across the Indian Ocean world.Scholars have long appreciated the centrality of trade and commerce in understanding the connectivity and mobility that underpin human experience in the Indian Ocean region. But studies of merchant and commercial activities have paid little attention to the role that cargoes have played in connecting the disparate parts of this vast oceanic world. Drawing from the work of anthropologists, geographers, and historians, Cargoes in Motion tells the story of how material objects have informed and continue to shape processes of exchange across the Indian Ocean.By following selected cargoes through both space and time, this book makes an important and innovative contribution to Indian Ocean studies. The multidisciplinary approach deepens our understanding of the nature and dynamics of the Indian Ocean world by showing how transoceanic connectivity has been driven not only by economic, social, cultural, and political factors but also by the materiality of the objects themselves.

You''ll cry laughing through this R-rated illustrated novel, all while making that small-hands, big dick-tater feel like an even bigger loser.

Consider fact vs. fiction in a sexy satire as Donny Trump meets an emotionless sex robot - no, not that one, and not that one either! - who rivals him at his own game of lies, deception, murder, and power.

Rediscover the funny in a world where a spoiled little sh*t becomes president and his emotionally dead robot lover is secretly in control. Power, kinky sex, deception, greed? That''s just the first page. You''ll also encounter a who''s who of liars, cheats, and perverts, along with toadstools, prenups, power, pedophiles, and yes... even a strap-on. What''s real? What''s not? Who cares... its all funny. (Well, except the end.)

An AI sex-bot becomes sentient. A spoiled heir becomes president. They fall in lust. What could go wrong? Political junkies, satire aficionados, Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, Millennials, and humans who enjoy humor might just glimpse a hint of the future between the lines of celebrated author Julia Berne''s newest masterpiece. Her genius is revealed in the subtle way that insight into todays political reality can be delivered via side-splitting laughs.

So, turn off the politics, and turn on the mocking, biting, sexy satire that " stress like a Trump hotel stay in Russia: Trump''s Hot Bot!
